Road Safety

Ride On Time offers a unique and stimulating way to engage children with road safety lessons and life skills.

Using our fleet of ride on toys and a road system complete with traffic lights and pedestrian crossing, the children can be taught the essentials of road traffic awareness. The sessions can be held in the safety of school grounds away from roads, but will bring the road environment into school. The session can be held indoors or outdoors.

Ride On Time road safety sessions have been designed with the early years framework as it’s benchmark. It specifically targets the following objectives:

  • personal, social and emotional development

  • communications and language development

  • understanding the World

  • physical development

Our sessions work as a stand alone session that introduces children to basic road safety awareness, or they can be incorporated into a wider classroom project. We would work in consultation with teachers to provide a session that incorporates any previous learning and develops any topic work further.

Ride on Time uses the road safety ABC and adapts it for the age group we are working with.

A is for Awareness ( An awareness that traffic can be dangerous and why they need to stay safe.)

B is for Behaviour (Teaching things you should do to stay safe.)

C is for Choices (making safer choices for yourself and other people.)

There are a number of ways we will teach the children to cover the  ABC .
